Happy Election Day! It was on this day in 1872, that suffragist Susan B. Anthony broke the law and tried to vote for president. Hopefully you have honored the sacrifices of all those who came before us and voted already, today. If not, please get out and vote.
When you get home, why not read, Duck for President with your own kids?
Happy reading,
Christine

Book on Suffrage
According to the National Archives, on this day in 1920, Senate ratified the 19th Amendment to the Constitution, giving women the right to vote. The picture book, Elizabeth Leads the Way, by Tanya Lee Stone is a great resource on the suffrage movement. Check it out.
Happy reading and voting,
